Two announcements, both fairly major:
1. The TAFL Message Board has adopted a 13+ age limit, in compliance with COPPA regulations. Under-13s account for most of the people we've had to suspend lately for spamming, trolling, necro-posting, etc. If you are under 13 but have no warnings, you are welcome to stay.
Members with a past history of problems who are found to be under 13 may be deleted, and required to obtain parental permission in order to re-register.
We apologize if this is inconvenient, and also to any under-13s who have behaved well here; these regulations are not targeting you in particular, but since so many have signed up in the past month, only to be suspended or warned almost IMMEDIATELY, we feel this is the best course of action at this point.
2. Member accounts older than three months with a post count of 0 may be pruned.
We are pruning almost 200 completely inactive members as we speak, and there are some LOVELY usernames becoming available (Bunny, Haruka, Kyo, Mamoru, Michiru, Momiji etc.) If you spot one you want, be the first to post in the name-change thread and it's yours. :strong:
